Abstract

This chapter critically explores the continuum between online threats of harm and its impact physically and spiritually on Muslim communities in terms of Mosque worship. It investigates safety in and around Mosques, which involves learning about the experiences of members – the congregation, staff, and volunteers. Mosques are considered vulnerable spaces, where the level of vulnerability will continue to rise in part due to the expansion of the online world, layers of anonymity, and the normalised nature of Islamophobia. The chapter delineates participant narratives, providing them a platform to speak openly about their experiences, which remain unarticulated to Mosque trustees due to relatability.
